So Whose going to buy O.J.'s book for the holidays!?
The publisher is coordinating the release of this book right in the midst of the holiday shopping season. Can you believe it?

What kind of person will open their presents (if they celebrate) on Christmas Day and excitedly hold a copy of "If I did it" and say, "YES!!"

Even people who may believe that Simpson is innocent and/or found not guilty--have to wonder about a man who would write a book about the mother of his children describing how her murder took place "If I did it."

Well, there might be a few jolly holiday shoppers after all--I just checked Amazon and pre-orders of the book have pushed it up to #24 in books.

Personally
I don't care, if someone wants to buy the book that's their business. I stopped wondering about what people do when Bush was re-elected, or when the VFW PAC backed a Repuke clown over an Iraqi War vet who left both of her legs on a battlefield.

I don't wonder about people anymore because just those two examples alone let me know that being brain dead is an acceptable condition now.

5. Considering that CSI has 3 versions
Probably a lot of those kind of people, that love blood and guts.

8. Tell me about it
Everywhere you look on TV anymore you see an autopsy. I kind of stick to National Geographic now. At least you just see lions tearing up zebras.

7. On second thought
at some point I just want to read a couple of paragraphs to see how he phrases it. Does he write IF I DID IT in every sentence, or what?

But mostly I think I've figured out how he did it.

I pity his children.

18. He so can't stand not being the total center of attention of the world.
That's why I think that eventually he will slaughter again.
